Barcelona manager Ernesto Valverde has dismissed concerns about Ousmane Dembele's lifestyle and said the Catalan club are "happy" with the French winger.
Speaking after Barca's defeat of Espanyol on penalties in the Supercopa de Catalunya, Valverde was questioned about Dembele's off-field habits and made assurances on the 20-year-old's professionalism, per Juan Jimenez of AS:
"This question surprises me a bit. All of the players off the field are the most professional in the world to perform on Sunday and in the case of Dembele, they use trusted people, nutritionists. We are happy with him and he is going to help us a lot.
